You should give away the new machines to someone who likes Windows, and concentrate on keeping the newest Lubuntu running on the oldest machines that are still reliable hardware-wise. There is NO dearth of options for new machines. While Lubuntu will run very well on them, it will NOT be appreciated very much by the owner of a machine that runs Windows8 alright; He will only compare Lubuntu with Win8. If you try to impress him, Lubuntu will run BADLY or not at all on low-spec hardware whose owners will be VERY happy for an OS that operates all their new peripherals on old processor at a good speed, REGARDLESS of eyecandy & convenience features & specialist software capability. I hope I am not causing any irritation to anyone with my comments. It is just my observation & opinion.
